The Term Amateur.

There is q vast difference between
:he meaning of the term amateur in
athletic sports in this country and in
England. Over there real amateur
must be above working, not only in the
athletics but every thing else; he must
be rich. or have rich father or rela-
tive, able to devote all tho time he de-
sircs to athletics without devoting a
thought to where the next loaf of bread
is coming from. In this country we
have very strict rules, but nothing like
the English. A man may work at
any thing he desires and still be an
amateur and rank away up If he has
tie ability to win the position. Every
thing is based on merit The only re-
striction is that an amateur must not
compete with \ professional for money
or prize. He can give An exhibition
with . professional, but he must not
receive any prize or any share A the
gate rcceiptA Il he does that makes
him professional which 10 in this

Some Sailors Expressions That Are Apt

peculiar patois, and so sailors. living
far from their fellows and far from tho
language molders, have formed their
own vocabulary of common life, vo-
cabulary that bears the imprint Of

their derivation.

An Extraordinary Case.

At q recent meeting Of the Berlin
Medical Society, Prof Mendel intro.
duced n patient, n well-to-do mechanic,
who regularly Mt nine o'clock in the
morning loses tho power Of speech and
hearing. remaining deaf mute until
six o'clock of the following morning.
From six to nine o'clock he hears and
speaks ~ we'll as anybody. This pc
culiar trouble showed itself first last
year as u sequel to an epileptic attack.
The patient, whose mental powers have
not suffered, exhibits another curious
anomaly. II certain spot In the
Joint Of tho right hand is
pressed, lN is ut once
seized with convulsions; il
n certain spot on tho right upper arm
Is pressed, the convulsions instantly
disappear Prof Mcndel made this
experiment twice before tho assembled
physicians. He was unable to give
the cause Of those abnormal condi.
lions. but considered them related to
tho hysterico-epileptic manifestations
sometimes seen in women. Their
origin Is probably TO DO sought In .
temporary interruption Of the nerve
functions involved In the process OF
hearing and speaking. Prof Mcndcl
said that there was but one analogous
case on record. but that he hoped to
bring about q cure. IN T. Post

Nut-Bearing Shade Trees.

A Maryland journal pertinently re.
marks that the idea of planting edible
nut bearing trees, where shade is de-
sired instead of c,ose which are solely
ornamental, is not new, but the sug-
gestion is one that will bear thinking
about by those who contemplate plant.

PUZZLES FOR DRUGGISTS.
Some Of the Queer Orders Received In
Apothecary shops.

Apothecary shops.
While waiting for a horse-car tho
other night reporter dropped into u
drug store. Presently little fellow
came in with a note which he gave to
the clerk. who laughed, did up a small
box Of cachous, put dime in the till
and then passed the note over to his
customer. 1t read:
Send me something to take that tobacco out
Of my mouth.
That note," said the clerk, 'is from
a printer, and is fair sample Of the
many queer orders we receive. l don't
suppose there is any business IN which
man is asked for more peculiar things
than in the drug business. But we
generally guess pretty nearly what is

of this order?' and he handed down
from file note that read:

it was ammonia. The note really

of them:

dose was for girl aged four years.
Another note that bothered me was
this one:

II was wrapping up some nitrate Of
silver when all at once it struck me
that the order was for q pnrgative.
and asked the boy who brought the
note what allied his father Cramps,
he replied, and then ! was sure.
Caustlc should have read costive. A
post. office employe sent over here one
day last winter saying:
The old woman's got bad cough and she
can't cough; send me something for it.

A YOUNG NAPOLEON.
His Financial Crash and q Noble
Woman.
uWhen Is II to bep0

'When is it to be?"
asked John Strong this question
because he was my intimate friend.
He had told me all about his engage
ment with Varina Vincent the pretty
school-teacher. He had opened his
heart to me. and / felt that l had the
right to ask when the wedding would
take place.
To my surprise Strong's handsome
face clouded. and he paused for mo-
mcnt before making reply.
"To tell you the TRUTH" he said,
1--WE do not see our way clear to an
early marriage. We are both poor.
but we are young and can afford to
wait"
Isaid nothing, but I could not help
thinking. In small town like Cot
tonvillo Strong was regarded as a very
prosperous young man. He had saved
a few thousand dollars. and his salary
was the highest paid to any one in the
place. Only q few years before Strong
had entered a country store as clerk
on starvation wages. He had adj
vanced steadily until he had become
tho cashier Of the only bank in Cot
tonville. 5.....
